Effingham High School graduate Chad Green pitched a scoreless inning against the New York Yankees in his spring training debut for the Detroit Tigers.

Chad's father, Howard, who is in Florida watching his son pitch, said when contacted that Chad pitched the inning on Thursday. He gave up a bloop double to the leadoff hitter, but then struck out the next batter, got a ground ball out to the catcher and got a fly ball to end the inning.

Chad is next due to pitch on Wednesday. He's currently working out of the bullpen.
